autumn time

I went out to take some more fall pictures.  I'm trying to figure out why I keep taking fuzzy pictures.  The leaves are really turning colors right now and falling like crazy.  Take a look and let me know.

    The most likely reason for the fuzziness is that you are set at a low ISO and a slightly too long of an exposure time. That is, you are holding the camera, but moving ever so slightlly. Try taking it with a tripod. Or a monopod, at the least. Sometimes, with wide-open apeture, you also get fuzziness. Using a tripod with a still subject and reducing your apeture and increasing your exposure time will usually crisp it up. At the expense of a loss of sense of depth. Try experimenting sometime with looking through the branches of a tree (so that you have some branches close, and some far away). Set your camera on Apeture Priority. Take one with it on the smallest number it goes. then take another with it in the middle. And another with it at the largest number it goes to. Compare the results.

    Woodpile is neat. Well, actually the woodpile is sloppy. It should be stacked properly. But the picture is cool. ;-)

    I like birdhouse and trees. All are great shots. I have the same kinda blurriness problem sometimes. I'll try Jarrow's suggestion.
